Love that runs away from me Dreams that just won't let me be Blues that keep on both'rin' me Chains that just won't set me free Too far away from you and all your charms Just out of reach of my two open arms
Each night in dreams I see your face Memories time cannot erase Then I awake and find you've gone I'm so blue, I'm all alone So far away from lips so sweet and warm Just out of reach of my two open arms
(That lonesome feeling all the time) (Knowing you cannot be mine) Dreams that hurt me in my sleep Vows that we could never keep Too far away from lips so sweet and warm Just out of reach of my two open arms
